Meet the Day with Gratitude

MEET THE DAYwith gratitude
When a new day presents
like a page unwritten

white
and uncluttered with the thoughts of man

Extend your heart
In a welcome gesture

With a direct gaze let in the light
that has waited the night through

bringing with it possibilities and hope

it is your friend and mine
never promised

each moment poised on the edge of eternity

Meet the day
WITH GRATITUDE

MEET THE DAYwith gratitude

For it is no
small thing

It sought you out
Found you ‘neath the darkness

Traced its morning light
over the curve of your cheek

Sparkled the tear in your eye
heeded your call for the night to end

meet the day
WITH GRATITUDE

MEET THE DAYwith gratitude

A day like a thousand dawns before it
A thousand more to come

Still the day is singular
and needs for you to live it

Were it not important
If it had no meaning

Yea, it would ne’er have appeared

It is here to light your way
To be that time, that space

That your soul needs to grow

meet the day
WITH GRATITUDE

MEET THE DAYwith gratitude

It comes
How will you address it?

In quietness?
Respectful of its magnificence?

The bird on wing signals its coming
Voices rising before the dawn

Massively numbered
They chant the magical mystery of dawn’s early light

My soul arises
A day has been given

I willmeet the dayWITH GRATITUDE

P.S. If I was someone who ran marathons (which I am not…that’s why Eddie the Cat and I are such good companions) I would consider myself getting close to the end and would be thanking those of you who have brought me “water” and cheered me on with your “signs”. I am feeling the LOVE which makes me confident that I AM on the right path and am not lost 🙂 I promise you will be the FIRST to know when I’m ready to share. For now, THE BIG PROJECT continues.
